The Problem….
It is surprising how many seven seater cars don’t have three full size seats across the middle row so if you have young children it is often not possible to have three car seats next to each other. You may have to use one of the boot seats which means less luggage space and makes it a little more difficult to get the kids in and out of the car.

Ford Galaxy
Fiat Doblo
Citroën Berlingo
Peugeot 5008
Citroën C4 Grand Picasso
